If this is the cable that came in the KOP then make sure you are fully inserted at both ends. These can look inserted when they are not fully pushed in. Happened in the finals last year at Boilermaker.

My mistake, what we are using is described in This checklist as "2-wire jumper cable 24” PN:03203" at the top of page 12. The wire has had the connector removed from one end, then soldered to small lengths of 18 AWG wire. There is another piece of 18 AWG wire bridging from La to Lb. The light itself appears to work, and the connection appears fine, as it doesn't cut out when the robot is turned on. I will however, double-check tomorrow if the connector is loose. The LED on the sidecar however, does not seem to respond in the proper manner. I will see if I can post a video of it tomorrow or something.

Thanks once again for the help.
